State of Umpiring [merged]

I know we played crap but that third qtr done my head in

Green slime kept them in the game with some baffling decisions.
What is too high? Ask Jako maybe 2 or 3 times.
What is holding the ball because I have no idea anymore either?

McBurney made sure the game didn't balloon beyond 3-4 goals in the 3rd. Well done pee ant. 

[dwaino]

Well done by the germs directing flow of play 

[tigs2011]

Throw the ball at McBurney's head next time Ty. FFS if you are going to give away 50 at least make it worthwhile. We were getting cheated anyway so what was he going to do? Just get it done next time Ty.

The umps matched the standard of the game (ie. crap!). The other two field umpires had just 30 games experience between them.

Becoming a regular issue in our games. Richmond players having their heads nearly ripped off yet it's play on    .

Neither do the umps. As WP said to me at the game, prior opportunity is just randomly paid now. Twice yesterday a Melbourne player was tackled and did a 360 yet the ump continued to flap his arms and call play on.

Yeah the Jackson ones were so stuffing blatant, right in FRONT of the prick and he ignored them.  He got smashed in the moosh twice in a row, and got nothing.

[Judge Roughneck]

Deledio and Ellis both almost lost their heads at different times, no free knock.

[Owl]

IF they were consistent in ignoring those, then fine, but they were making things UP to pay frees to Melbourne and then ignoring blatant ones to us.

[RollsRoyce]

Well, there goes my theory that they umpire to ladder positions. Seems no matter who we play, good, bad, indifferent or Rabblebourne, we are going to get screwed.

Sellar spun more than 360 degrees in a tackle and no free either!!

Then chucked it. Bloke doesn't know how to handball. He's a bigger rabble than Rabblebourne themselves.

I wanted to draft him ahead of Jack. 

[Yeahright]

Jackson has to stop leading with his head then maybe he wouldn't get so many knocks to it. Might help him hit a target too
